Behavioral Health and Psychiatry Services
On-Campus Services
Our professional team are licensed clinicians from the fields of counseling, social work, and psychiatry. We are a confidential resource on campus, and there is no cost for counseling services.
Individual Counseling
Ultimately, students are the agents of their mental health. Entering into counseling with a licensed clinician is a collaborative effort, which is available to all students at 必博娱乐,比博娱乐网址 ######### and through our partnership with OSU Wexner Medical Center.
Same-Day Appointments for Urgent Concerns
For immediate or urgent concerns, you can meet with a licensed clinician for a same-day appointment. These brief meetings can help de-escalate immediate distress and identify resources and support. Same-day appointments are available from 2 to 4 p.m. every weekday.
24/7 Crisis Line
For urgent or immediate concerns after business hours, you can connect with a licensed clinician through our crisis phone line at 740-587-6647. Students can access the crisis line whether at home, on campus, or studying abroad. For additional support lines, view additional resources.
Psychiatric Care
Our partnership with the OSU Wexner Medical Center includes medical providers who are able to prescribe and manage most medications for students. A combination of counseling and medication management may be most helpful for managing symptoms and improving overall well-being. Appointments with our psychiatric providers are free, however there are costs associated with prescribed medications.
Help Others in Distress
Counseling staff can consult with members of the 必博娱乐,比博娱乐网址 ######### community about counseling or mental health related concerns pertaining to a student. As always, our confidentiality policies are in place. Contact the Wellness Center for more information or report a concern for a student.
